For as long as i can remember i've had this thing where if i accidently touch something...

Question

i have to touch it 3 more times. once with the part of me that first touched it and twice with the other hand/or side of me. Anyone else ever had something like that

Answer 1

That is low-case OCD.

I've had a problem where I have to make everything balanced and equal and I think it maybe a sort of OCD.

I read an interesting fictional novel about a girl with OCD. It's called Kissing Doorknobs. (BTW, it's not a book for the immature, it has realistic situations, and I don't think some ppl could take reading it.)

I think it would be a good book for you to read.

Answer 2

You probably have some tendencies for obsessive-compulsive disorder.  

Answer 3

your OCD.  

Answer 4

i used to do that.

its called "obsessive-compulsive disorder"

obsessive-compulsive disorder means your obsessed or repetitive with another object or person. If you wanna know more google OCD or obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I used to do it alot. and on occasion i still do somethings.

like i have to start walking on right foot or i stop and start over.

Sometimes i will itch my arm or something and i will need to itch it a certain amount of times.

Usually it only bothers yourself so i wouldn't freak out.

Answer 5

It's called OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.  If it affects your daily life (you can't arrive on time to work or other places, causes problems in relationships, etc.) get help from a psychiatrist.  Medication can easily fix it.  Otherwise, just consider it one of those quirky things people do.

Answer 6

your ocd. lots of people have stuff like that they do. if it doesn't bother you or mess up your life its ok, but ocd can get worse without warrning. if it does get worse go see someone about it

Answer 7

Yeah, that's an OCD thing.  As long as it doesn't bother you or anyone else I wouldn't worry about it.  I've got a coworker who does that too.  He also likes to tap things with his pencil...like his monitor or his chair...usually just before he walks away from it.  He's just action-packed with issues.

Answer 8

Heh sounds like a very mild obsessive-compulsive thing.  Lots of people have little things they do like that - quite often they aren't even aware of them.

I don't know of anything particular like that that I do, but there is probably *something* !

Answer 9

I do the same thing, but it's with making sure that the door is locked.  I've turned it so many times that I've went through 3 door k***s in 2 years.  Same with my car, I press the lock button 4 or 5 time and people stare at me.  Trust me you're not the only one!
